Capt Panigarhy's questions were as follows on 08.12.10 - Wednesday 1.How would you review the company SMS onboard 2.What is IAMSAR and explain in detail 3.Ship has foundered... action 4.Constructional requirements for chemical tanker and container ship 5.Contents of MSA 6.Quote rule no.8 7.Masters duty as per MSA(wants actual duties as in MSA)

1. Getting his name endorsed on the COR as the lawfully appointed Master of the vsl. 2. Any changes in COR to be duly endorsed by registrar of port of registry 3. Signing crew articles of agreement. 4. Payment, advance and allotment of crew wages. 5. Duty to fill up Official Log Book and keep up-to-date 6. Duty to check provisions, water, accommodation, galley and stores on a regular basis. 7. To assist in case of collision. 8. To report dangers to navigation. 9. Render assistance on receiving distress signals. 10. Reporting of Shipping casualties.8.P&I Clubs role in case of oil pollution ?P&I Clubs P&I Clubs are mutual, non-profit making associations which insure their shipowner members against various third-party liabilities, including oil pollution. Whilst each Club bears the first part of any claim, the concept of mutuality is extended by the pooling of large claims by the major P&I Clubs that are members of the International Group. To safeguard members in the event of a catastrophic claim above the limit of this pool, excess reinsurance is placed by the International Group Clubs on the worlds insurance markets, in the case of oil pollution up to US$1 billion. It should be emphasized, however, that this sum has no relevance in the vast majority of oil spill cases since it would only be available in rare circumstances, for example if a tanker owner lost the right to limit his liability under the CLC in a very expensive case.

9.Harmonisation of contingency planning...wants explanation in full details of all 6 modules

To avoid duplication, shipboard contingency plans must differentiate between "initial actions" and the major response effort involving "subsequent response", depending on the emergency situation and the type of ship. It is recommended that a uniform and integrated system of shipboard emergency plans should be treated as part of the International Safety Management (ISM) Code, forming a fundamental part of the company's individual Safety Management System (SMS).I Introduction :- should provide guidance and an overview of the subject-matter. II Provisions :- should contain information and explanations on how the system could be

developed on the basis of suggestions for improvement made by the individual company and

of shipboard personnel with a view to developing general awareness and understanding of actions to he taken in the event of an emergency.IV Response Actions :- should provide guidance for shipboard personnel in an emergency when the

ship is under way, berthed, moored, at anchor, in port or in dry dock.

V Reporting Procedures :- should take care of the following:

Every effort should be made to assure that information regarding: - ship interest contacts; - coastal State contacts; and - port contacts for reporting emergencies are part of the system and are regularly updated.VI Annexes :- * Plans and diagrams concerning details of the ship's general arrangement

* Bunker and ballast information * Additional documents (e.g. list of contact points) * Industry guidelines * Cargo information, etc.These were the questions he asked within a span of 10 minutes. Small explanations are not enough for him.

The aim of the mandatory IMSBC Code is to facilitate the safe stowage and shipment of solid bulk cargoes by providing information on the dangers associated with the shipment of certain types of cargo and instructions on the appropriate procedures to be adopted. 1 January 2011: Entry into force of June 2009 amendments to SOLAS ECDIS and BNWAS to be made mandatory under SOLAS Amendments to SOLAS regulation V/19, to make mandatory the carriage of Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS) and Bridge Navigational Watch Alarm Systems (BNWAS), under SOLAS chapter V, Safety of Navigation. The requirements will be mandatory for new ships and phased-in for existing ships. Other SOLAS amendments coming into force: an amendment to SOLAS regulation II-1/3-5.2, to prohibit all new installations of asbestos on board ships, without exceptions; and amendments to the title of Chapter VI to read, Carriage of Cargoes "and Oil Fuels" and to Regulation VI/5-1 on Material safety data sheets (MSDS) to require MSDS to be provided for ships carrying oil or oil fuel, prior to the loading of such oil as cargo in bulk or bunkering of oil fuel. The MSC also approved Recommendations for material safety data sheets (MSDS) for MARPOL Annex I type cargoes and oil fuels. 1 January 2011: Entry into force of July 2009 amendments to MARPOL MARPOL Annex I - transfer of oil cargo between oil tankers at sea Amendments to MARPOL Annex I for the prevention of marine pollution during some ship-to-ship (STS) oil transfer operations.

Notification to the relevant coastal State will be required not less than 48 hours in advance of the scheduled

STS operations although some relaxation to this rule is allowed in certain, very specific, cases. The regulations are not intended to apply to bunkering operations. Consequential amendments to the International Oil Pollution Prevention (IOPP) Certificate, the Supplement to the IOPP Certificate and the Oil Record Book. Amendments to MARPOL Annex I regulations 1, 12, 13, 17 and 38, relating to the on board management of oil residue (sludge). The amendments clarify long standing requirements and remove existing ambiguities in order to facilitate compliance by ships' crews. Definitions for oil residue (sludge), oil residue (sludge) tanks, oily bilge water and oily bilge water holding tanks are introduced for the first time. Related amendments to the Supplement to the IOPP Certificate, Form A and Form B, and to the Oil Record Book.
